Start with what you're feeling

Does any of this sound like you?

Start where it hurts. I'll look at the whole picture from there.

PMS · Fertility · Pregnancy · Menopause

Your hormones, at every stage

Women have suffered through the ages because of cyclical hormonal change. All of these hormonal changes can be addressed with natural medicine and healing. I can help with PMS, perimenopausal and menopausal brain fog, hormonal headaches, prenatal care and hormone balance.

Ask me about hormones

Underactive, overactive, or 'borderline'

Thyroid health

Hair in the shower. Weight that won't move. Brain fog. Maybe your tests are 'borderline', or even within normal limits, and you still don't feel right. I can help identify the underlying causes and type of thyroid imbalance. Using a blend of herbal remedies, homeopathy, acupuncture, nutrition and healing, you can begin to feel better.

Ask me about your thyroid

Sleep · Stress · Anxiety · PTSD

Anxiety, PTSD, insomnia or disturbed sleep

Begin sleeping through the night again, find inner peace, rest and relaxation. Find support that can restore calm, relieve and realign. This is a multilayered process that includes healing on spiritual, mental, emotional and physical planes.

Ask me about sleep and stress

Something else, or simply staying well?There's room for that, too

A door you can open, if it speaks to you

Where spirit, nature and science meet.

Some people come for the body and find the rest matters too. Some come for the rest.

If that's you, this is how I work on every level: physical, emotional, mental and spiritual.

More about me and how I work

In patients' words

What patients say

I want to share something really good. I was ill for a week, with a fever, a bad cough and a terrible weakness in my body. Yesterday I decided I had to get help, and went to Elisabeth, who treated me with shiatsu and acupuncture. A definite improvement in how I feel, more than I can explain. I really, warmly recommend her. Thanks to her, I feel human again!

What to expect

From your story to your next step.

  1. A free first call

    Tell me what's going on, and we'll see together whether I'm the right person to help.

  2. Your first visit: a full assessment

    75 minutes. We go through your medical history, what's troubling you now and how it started, and any recent tests or scans. I'll also ask about your sleep, your food and what's been happening in your life.

  3. A plan that's yours

    We set your health goals together. You leave with a plan you understand, not a bag of supplements.

  4. Treatment and follow-ups

    Always with me. We review how you're doing and change the plan as you change.

What people ask before they get in touch

Can I claim the cost back?

I'm a private practice, so the health funds don't subsidise it, but I give receipts and the paperwork you need if your insurance refunds part of it. Not sure yet? The first call is free.

What does a naturopathic doctor do?

I look at your health as a whole and use natural treatments to support it: shiatsu, acupuncture, nutritional counselling, medicinal herbs and homeopathy. I don't replace your doctor or your medication. I work alongside them, on the sleep, energy, digestion and stress that often sit around a medical problem.

More about how I work
I'm already on medication. Is that a problem?

No, but tell me what you take, including anything you've bought yourself. Some herbs interact with prescriptions, and that's exactly why I need the list. I work around your medication, never instead of it.

What actually happens in the first visit?

A full assessment, over an hour and a quarter. We go through your medical history, what's troubling you now and how it started, and any recent blood tests, scans or reports, so please bring them. We agree a plan before you leave, and you'll know what it involves and when we'll review how you're doing.

Do acupuncture and shiatsu hurt?

Most people find acupuncture much gentler than they expect: the needles are very fine, and many people barely feel them. Shiatsu is pressure and touch, and you stay fully clothed. I explain each step before I start, and nothing happens that you haven't agreed to.

How soon will I feel a difference?

It depends on what's going on and for how long, so I won't promise a date. At the first visit we agree what we're working on and when we'll review it together, so you'll know early on whether it's helping.

I'm nowhere near the Galilee.

Most of what I do works by phone or video, in Hebrew or English. Acupuncture and shiatsu need you in the room; consultations, nutrition and herbs don't.
